Running Around and Stuff
Due to Thanksgiving busyness, we'll just pretend like this area has some sort of commentary about the previous TAR episode. It's not because I'm lazy, it's because my Aunt Cheryl wants to play a board game tonight.
Week 9 Results
1st place - Meghan/Cheyne (2x)
2nd place - Sam/Dan (1.5x)
3rd place - FlightTime/BigEasy (1x)
4th place - Brian/Ericka (.5x)
Tubular.
These titles are starting to sound like Super Mario World level names.
The Bonus Game this week was to guess which team would have the most confessionals, and it ended up being FlightTime/BigEasy. They were a pretty popular choice overall. The other popular choice, Brian/Ericka, finished last in confessionals... Due to them talking to the camera in cabs all the time and not at the pitstop.
The Perfect Bet Award goes to esquire (4x) who made a correct All-In wager on the Globetrotters. Way to go!
The Greatest Gainer Award goes Max Headroom, who climbed 10 ranks to #8 overall! Nice!

Special Payout Table this week. Make sure you look at the payout table, since it's completely flipped this week. You'll want to bet on the last place and 3rd place teams.
ARNutz has selected the following bonus game.
Bonus Game - Over/Under
This game is simple. Here's 4 statements, and you can choose to wager your points on the Over (the statement will happen more than than number of times) or Under (will happen less often than that). Here are the four statements.
1. Meghan yells "Cheyne!" 4 times during the next leg.
-It has to exclamatory, like she's yelling, and not merely talking about what Cheyne does.
2. Sam or Dan tells the other brother on their team to "shut up" 3 times.
3. FlightTime/BigEasy uses a form of either of the expressions, "let's get it" or "go get it" 3 times.
-Different verb tenses apply, if for some reason they said, "gonna get it".
4. Brian/Ericka uses the words "steal" and "taxi" in the same sentence 2 times.
-Different verb tenses apply, like "Sam/Dan stole our taxi" would count.
You can wager on as many statements as you'd like, but no individual wager may exceed 35 points.
If your prediction on the Over/Under comes true, you win your bet. If it doesn't, you lose the bet. If the answer is "neither" and the example actually happens (like Sam/Dan actually says "shut up" exactly 3 times), then you still lose the bet. Hey, that's why you're getting 3x on this wager and not 2x.
